 Astrology and Economics: The Stock Market and Economy in 1998
I believe that the 30 or 60 year economic cycle is related to the 29.4 year period of revolution around the Sun of the planet Saturn.
My belief is that Saturn in the sign of Sagittarius, the combined horse/human, coincides with the critical event, such as a stock market crash, that leads to an economic depression.
There appears to be a pattern to the U. economy, where economic depressions or severe recessions occur every 30 or 60 years.
